Figure Earnings: Revenue Beats, Earnings Per Share Miss, Stock Falls
Summary
Shares of Figure Technology Solutions fell approximately 20% following the release of mixed fourth-quarter earnings. For the quarter ending December 31, the company reported revenue of $159.9 million, surpassing the expected $157.7 million and significantly up from $83.9 million the previous year. However, earnings per diluted share (EPS) were $0.06, missing the analyst consensus estimate of $0.18. This mixed performance, despite strong revenue growth driven by a surge in Consumer Loan Marketplace volume to $2.7 billion, signaled a challenging operating environment. The company also authorized a $200 million share repurchase program. Figure, which began trading on the Nasdaq in September, saw its stock retreat from a January high near $74.
